Many of the dishes that are traditionally eaten in Guanajuato are regional variations of dishes known in other parts such as carnitas, tamales, birria and pozole. |
But is it possible to get great carnitas in a restaurant where you can actually sit down, hear some music and maybe get a margarita or two? |
My favourite tacos were from a food truck: smoky carnitas, sparky and vibrant with fresh salsa, from El Gallo Giro at 23rd and Treat. |
Besides, you could get pork carnitas at the grocery, already marinated and ready to go. |
Everything we tried on our recent visit was delicious, particularly the slow-roasted Pork carnitas, the spit-roasted chicken and the grilled corn. |
Central Mexico's cuisine is largely made up of influences from the rest of the country, but also has its authentics, such as barbacoa, pozole, menudo, tamales, and carnitas. |
